A new sworn enemy
Just got a notification from Ebay that my search for a T204 Tom Reilly had a hit! Made my day until I realized it was for a reprint card. I wanted to strangle the seller through the internet.
Who exactly would be the target audience for a fake card of one of the worst major leaguers ever?!

Does that mean I've been replaced on that sworn enemy list?

That scan is actually from early 2005 and I haven't bid on one since, so I can't be held responsible for what happened the last 11 years.

I haven't bid on one in over ten years. I think I've been more than generous in that regard. I wish he would buy one finally so I can keep collecting them!

I don't even collect the set, I just hated that there weren't any Pirates in the set and decided to buy all the cards of the worst player in the set and destroy them in protest. I also hated 121 cards in the set, felt they should have stopped at a nice number like 120. I realized after I bought six of them that it was an impossible goal and everyone associated with producing the set was probably long gone anyway, so I gave up. Now I just keep them as a reminder not to try to get even with dead people.

And more importantly, John can finally go back to pursuing them to add to his hoard.
